Every Hibs player will have a role to play in the next few weeks of the season according to head coach David Gray.
Gray named an unchanged side for the last three matches against KF Malisheva, Motherwell and KF Shkëndija respectively.
And with another quick turnaround before the game against Rangers at Ibrox on Sunday, Gray is keen to make sure all of his players are ready to go as Hibs push for their first league victory of the season.
He said: “The squad has been really stretched, and we’ve started the last three games with the same XI, so there will need to be changes moving forward because we’ve gone Thursday-Sunday, Thursday-Sunday, and we’ll lose a day’s recovery before the weekend.
“The whole squad is crucial. Everybody needs to be ready to go, even the ones who didn’t play tonight (Thursday). They’ll top up after the game and be ready if called upon because we’re going to need everybody.
“There will be changes on Sunday against Rangers, and I’ve already reminded the players of that. They need to be ready to take their opportunity because we want this run of Thursday-Sunday football to continue for as long as possible.
“To do that, you need everyone in the squad pulling in the same direction, fit, ready to go and giving us the best chance of being successful.
“The substitutes did exactly what they needed to do [on Thursday] by coming on and impacting the game in a real positive way.
“I think Ante (Šuto) and Callum (Wright) were really positive when they came on and that was exactly what was required and we’re going to need that again.
“Players need to be ready to take their opportunity, like those two certainly did.
“Every day the players who have been out injured are getting closer [to returning] as well, so we’re certainly moving in the right direction.
“There are a lot of positives to take from tonight, but the focus now quickly turns to Sunday.”
